Pros

The office space was pretty nice, though there were often problems with the heating/cooling and the white noise they pumped in was sometimes bothersome.

Cons

Slow to move everyone to work from home when the pandemic hit in 2020. Manager didn't listen to feedback even when they asked what they could do differently. Part of mid-year and annual reviews did not include opportunity for direct reports to review who they reported to. Say they have flexible work/life hours/balance but you could tell that management wasn't happy if you weren't in the office for 10+ hrs. Manager would often look over the shoulders of employees while they were working to see what they were working on etc. without asking first, and if they saw you reading an article or something that wasn't 100% work related it was noted in your review and you were looked down upon.

We value any opportunity to hear from our employees about their experiences and take the information received very seriously as we continue to grow and mature as an organization. As we continue to explore what the future state will look like post pandemic, we are evaluating how we can incorporate more flexibility into our culture for employees.

I had a great onboarding experience - my manager was very prepared with a clear and useful onboarding plan. The people have been very welcoming and the company culture is great.

Cons

The company is growing rapidly, which presents natural challenges - but the overall experience has been very positive.

Pros

Great place to work. Very considerate of actual career and life experience rather than focusing on having a degree. Management really cares about your success personally and professionally. Top-notch focus on career development. Cohesive, cooperative teams. Fair base pay for experience, good health benefits, and decent flexibility.

Cons

Your experience will be deeply influenced by which location you work at and position you work in. The company has a good framework for inclusion but in reality there are unchecked local employees who make it very uncomfortable if you can't pass for right wing. Raises are inconsistent and don't seem to be determined by performance ratings. Despite having a good review every cycle, I haven't seen so much as a cost of living adjustment post - promotion.
